Speeches by Quigley.

“I do not wish to put words into your mouth, but I get a sense that when you say that sufficient evidence is sufficient, it is because you feel that perfect has become the enemy of the good.”

“The Statutory Inquiries Committee recommended a new Joint Committee to monitor and scrutinise inquiry recommendations. What were the main reasons that was considered to be the best way forward?”

“I will be brief. To bring it back to the reason we are here, there are two victims, for want of a better word, who have both waived their right to anonymity: Ms Hall and Mr Murray. In Ms Hall’s words, “The Charity Commission’s repeated failures have caused me profound pain and ongoing injustice. Instead of holding a tr…”

“What value do you think you as the PHSO have offered in these cases?”

“If that is the case—you are saying that it is an unedifying process but you would not do anything differently—do we have a much bigger problem?”

“What would you want to do differently in this case?”

“Ideally, it would be the Treasury, but it could also be MHCLG. It depends which level of disappointment you want.”

“Mr Banister, are you content that the PHSO had full understanding of the regulatory functions of the Charity Commission, particularly the commission’s role in identifying and investigating any apparent misconduct or mismanagement in the administration of charities, as opposed to general misconduct or mismanagement?”

I will present the argument from the eyes of the Isle of Wight, the point being that the many coastal communities represented will suffer similar issues. The Isle of Wight has the secon…”

“Does the hon. Member agree that perpetrators should not be rewarded through the court process with reduced sentences when they change their plea to guilty at the last minute? It is just a continuation of the coercive and controlling behaviour that they have already displayed.”

“While I welcome the steps the Department has already taken to prevent perpetrators of domestic abuse from using the family courts to continue coercive control, will the Minister look to ensure that legal aid is accessible to victims in pathfinder courts, particularly at decision hearings, given the worrying reports tha…”

“5. What steps his Department is taking to help prevent people convicted of domestic abuse from using family court proceedings to harass their victims.”

“1. What assessment she has made with Cabinet colleagues of the adequacy of support available to survivors of sexual assault on the Isle of Wight.”

“I thank the Minister for her answer. On the Isle of Wight, the absence of a sexual assault referral centre means that survivors of rape and sexual assault are often required to make a long ferry journey to Portsmouth or Southampton—sometimes in the very clothes they were assaulted in—to access the specialist support th…”

“Happy St George’s day, Mr Speaker. My right hon. Friend may have heard me say what a fantastic place the Isle of Wight is to live, work and learn. Does he agree that our island is uniquely well placed to test exciting new policies and initiatives across all Departments to speed up national roll-out, as evidenced in an …”

“21. What steps his Department is taking to improve cross-departmental working.”

“I guess a repeat of where we are this week.”

“The joy.”

“What would failure look like?”
